Applying for FHFMA Certification

You may submit your application for FHFMA certification once you have met the other requirements listed above. Your application must include a one-time only, $150 processing fee (HFMA will return the fee if the application is not accepted; otherwise, the fee is non-refundable).

Applications for FHFMA certification must be notarized. HFMA will process FHFMA applications within 60 to 90 days after receipt. If the application is incomplete or requires additional review, HFMA will contact the candidate.

Certificates for members achieving FHFMA status are given to Chapter Presidents for presentation and are not mailed directly to the candidate. The name on the certificate is the name in the candidate's HFMA member profile. The candidate is responsible for ensuring accuracy of information in their HFMA member profile.
